I am just doing baby steps in haskell. I have downloaded Win64 bit version, pulled off some tutorial and created a .hs file
main = putStrLn "Hello, World!"
after compiling it with
.\ghc.exe -o hello hello.hs
I noticed the output file of a simple program running "Hello, World!" weighs almost 2MB. I am clearly sure that comes out from not understanding how Haskell works, however - is it anyhow possible to compile the source file so that it's not that fat? I assume Haskell added zillions of redundant libraries which are not required.
Can someone provide me insight on that compiler? I'm not even sure how to ask Google some search engine about that.
Thanks in advance
